• Sommario/riassunto: This collection considers how time shapes globalization, and how globalization affects our experience of time, as manifested across a variety of economic, political, cultural, and environmental contexts. Topics covered include emerging infectious diseases, temporal sovereignty, worker exploitation and resistance, chronobiology, energy politics, activism and hope, and literary and cinematic representations of counter-temporalities, offering a rich, varied account of global time. This book will interest students and researchers from a range of disciplines including anthropology, cultural studies, globalization, literary studies, political science and IR, social theory, and sociology.
